Global Vision Week to be Held October 16-20, 2017

October 4, 2017

Grand View created Global Vision Week to offer students, faculty and staff and the community opportunities to encounter belief systems, heritages and perspectives that differ from our own. The goal is to develop a deeper understanding of others, ourselves and our relationship to the world.

This year’s topic focuses on increasing our awareness of immigrant and refugee experiences. The week’s activities will engage our minds to better understand immigration in Iowa and the world.

For Global Vision Week 2017, we have organized events that offer breadth and depth in understanding our immigrant nation. We have also sought to bring in multiple disciplines and fields of knowledge and invite community members, both off-campus and on-campus, to feel a part of this important week.
